But for general purposes, no, there are no other specific tests that I know of.
For now we have only hints when you respond to mito support nutrients in a positive way, that implies mito functions are
compromised.

Thank you Mrs. D! I sincerely appreciate your help.
I read last night in one of the posts here (sorry I forgot now who posted it or under what topic - since I started taking gabapentin, my memory really became bad) , it says about cruciferous vegetables not good for hypothyroidism. It also mentioned about it being steamed or eaten raw, does it mean that its okay to cook it in other ways e.g. sauteing.
Thank you.
